Thermowells must be used on any
application where the stem of the temperature switch may be exposed to pressure, corrosive fluids or high velocity.
Additionally, the use of a thermowell per-

Ashcroft Inc. supplies highly reliable

Ashcroft
switches and controls for industrial and process applications. We begin
with rock-solid designs, matching the
most appropriate technology with the
safety and reliability requirements of the
applications. The materials of construction
are specified to Ashcroft’s exacting standards, and product is built to last in the
toughest applications. Our modern,
responsive manufacturing facility is supported by an extensive network of stocking distributors and factory sales offices
located in virtually every part of the world.
Special application assistance is
always just a telephone call away.
The Ashcroft G & L-Series temper-
ature switch line is designed to satis-
fy most switch requirements. Materials
of construction have been selected for
long life. A wide variety of precision switch
elements are available to meet every
application requirement, including hermet-
m
check without disturbing or closing down
the process.
Ashcroft temperature switches have
bulb diameters to match
thermowells. The bulbs have a sensitive
portion length of 2
1
with 2
⁄2˝ “U” dimensioned thermowells or
3
⁄8˝ nominal bore
1
⁄4˝ which can be used
longer. For maximum accuracy, a thermowell “U” dimension should be selected
to permit complete immersion of the sensitive portion plus 1˝ when measuring the
temperature of liquids; an extra 3˝ should
be allowed when measuring the temperature of gases.
Thermowell bushings should be used with
remote mount temperature switches. We
recommend the standard 3˝ bulb and code
69 Series bushings for use with any thermo-well “U” dimension. A split rubber grommet allows easy installation and “S” dimension adjustment.
ically sealed contacts for added reliability
and safety. The thermal systems we use
have been proven in more than 20 years
of service in the world’s plants and mills.
Special designs are available for more
stringent requirements. Simplicity and
ease of use are stressed to improve reliability of the installation.
Applications include: pumps, compres-
sors, washers, filters, degreasers, evap-
ies

orators, recovery systems, food processing, ground support equipment, reverse
osmosis systems, heat exchangers,
hydraulic systems, lubrication systems,
marine equipment, textile machinery,

G & L-Series Multifunction
Temperature Switches
Temperature Switches
G- and L-Series temperature switches feature a
AMA Class II vapor pressure thermal system.
S
This system provides quick, accurate response
to process temperature changes with negligible
mbient temperature effects. This is inherent in
a
the design due to the precise relation-ship
between temperature and pressure according to
the vapor pressure laws. A wide selection of
sensing bulb and armored capillary lengths are
available. The vapor pressure system design features small bulb sizes, making installation easy
and cost-effective.
All models feature ±1 percent of span
setpoint repeatability with very high over-
temperature ratings.
These standard designs perform well in appli-
ations where shock and vibration could be a
c
problem and should be used with Ashcroft thermowells for bulb protection and ease of installa-
ion and maintenance.
